The sexual contant is minimal. This was a reallygood story to add to the deWarenne Dynasty series. I have read them all now and with all of them you feels frustration and every tear they shed you share with your whole heart. I wish there were more.

"Ariella. I hurt you once. It was enough. I cam tonight to apologize, but clearly, I should not have come at all." He breathed hard. "I do not trust myself now."
She smiled. "I trust you."
"A dangerous idea."
She moved past him, paused. "Emilian? In case you haven't realized, I don't hate you - and I never will."
